    S4E1: Public Relations

    S4E1: Public Relations

    Mad Men & Tonic is back for Season 4! It’s S4E1, “Public Relations,” and there’s a noticeable lack of holiday spirit on Thanksgiving 1964. K&E mix New York Sours, put on their chicken Kiev ponchos, and battle through rude barking podcast guests to take stock of SCDP and a post-Draper marriage world. Plus, Kristina finds a way to save humanity from aliens AND poltergeists. (Note: Background noise settles after 15ish minutes when the “guest stars” calmed down.)

    Bonus Episode: Listener Letters, Season 3

    Bonus Episode: Listener Letters, Season 3

    Welcome back to Mad Men & Tonic! In the second (and final) bonus episode before the 3rd (Annual? Biannual? Occasional?) MME’s , we delve into listener comments and insights from the internets! Including about K & E’s zodiac signs … when K tells us that while “nature is fine and all,” she’s not your usual earthy Virgo, she’d prefer to go to an art museum, look at a watercolor of a plant, and then go out to dinner. Thanks to all our listeners and fellow Mad Men obsessives for making this one possible.

    S3E13: Shut the Door. Have a Seat.

    Welcome back to Mad Men & Tonic! We finally made it to the episode that has it all! In S3E13, “Shut the Door. Have a Seat,” K&E mix the Grounds for Divorce cocktail and talk through the questions raised by Don’s slow motion corporate conspiracy and formation of a new family, Bobby losing Don’s cufflinks, and the shocking conclusion of Don’s childhood flashback plot line. Plus we wave bon voyage to Betty, Henry, and (only!) baby Gene as they depart for their glamorous Reno vacation!

    [Name we couldn’t recall of who at McCann previously courted Don: Jim Hobart]
